About
One of the best ’60s San Francisco bands, Moby Grape were also one of the most versatile. Although they are most often identified with the psychedelic scene, their specialty was combining all sorts of roots music - folk, blues, country, and classic rock & roll - with some Summer of Love vibes and multi-layered, triple-guitar arrangements. All of those elements only truly coalesced, however, for their 1967 debut LP. Although subsequent albums had more good moments than many listeners are aware of, a combination of personal problems and bad management effectively killed off the group by the end of the 1960s. Great Grape is a compilation album released by Columbia Records in 1972 that compiles songs from three of Moby Grape’s Columbia albums - Moby Grape, Wow, and Moby Grape ’69. It has been speculated that Columbia’s decision to release this album was based solely on trying to capitalize on any interest generated in Moby Grape by the then-recent release of a new studio album, 20 Granite Creek, on Reprise Records.
